Message 1419169 - Posted: 23 Sep 2013, 6:02:10 UTC - in response to Message 1418639.  

I'm currently re-watching the tv series Cosmos, and Carl Sagan just made mention of the Voyager program(at that time - 1980 - in it's heyday of snapshotting the solar system).

If you haven't seen Cosmos since you were a kid, or never seen it, I highly recommend it - May look a little dated in production, but it's timeless in spirit.




Have the whole program on a DVD set at home, really glad I do:)

I also have the box set. I don't remember the part of the Voyager Program. I will check it out again. Thanks Julie!

As if NASA's Voyager mission didn't have enough firsts in its 36-year journey, what with sending the first spacecraft to Uranus, Neptune and, most recently, interstellar space! Now, it has another first back here on Earth: on last night’s episode of the Colbert Report (12/3/13), host Stephen Colbert floated across the stage in a spacesuit worthy of a1950s-era sci-fi movie and presented Voyager Project Scientist Ed Stone with a NASA Distinguished Public Service Medal. The prestigious award honors Stone for his work as project scientist of the venerable Voyager spacecraft since 1972.

Not only artistic:

Music is mathematics for the soul
Mathematics is music for the soul

Hence mathematics and music commute, hence they form an Abelian algebra.

That's beautiful tullio...
